Polyarc released "Moss: The Forgotten Relic" on July 17, 2026, for PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2. The complete edition bundles the original "Moss" (2018), "Moss: Book II" (2022), and the additional content "Twilight Garden" into a single seamless package. Previously a VR-exclusive series, this version plays on a standard screen without a headset. The player takes the role of a "Reader" who guides the mouse protagonist Quill through diorama-like stages, solving environmental puzzles and battling magical threats called Arcane Creatures. New cutscenes, camera work, and visual updates have been added, along with platform-specific optimizations. The music is composed by Jason Graves, known for "Dead Space." Prices vary by store between 2,300 yen and 2,350 yen (tax included). A limited-time 10 percent launch sale is running on Steam, and bundles with "Stray," "Mina: The Hollower," and the original soundtrack are also available. The "Moss" series has won over 160 awards and nominations, including recognition at The Game Awards and BAFTA.
The original "Moss" and "Moss: Book II" were VR-exclusive titles; the complete edition drops that hardware requirement, letting players experience Quill's journey on a normal screen. The game is built on the same diorama-style stages that characterize the series, with the player acting as a "Reader" rather than a traditional controller. The relationship between Quill and the player remains central: she looks at the player and seeks guidance throughout the adventure. The complete edition includes a "battle skip" accessibility feature for players who want to focus on the story at a relaxed pace. The music, composed by Jason Graves, uses a grand orchestral score. The series has accumulated over 160 awards and nominations, from events such as The Game Awards, D.I.C.E. Awards, and BAFTA. Polyarc is an indie studio based in Seattle, founded in 2015, and has built its reputation on the "Moss" series. The launch on Steam also offers bundles with other indie titles like "Stray" and "Mina: The Hollower" alongside the soundtrack.
